INTRODUCTION. 



This Outline of United States History is designed, when in the 
hands of teachers, to aid tlieni in tlie assignment of lessons, to suggest 
different waj^'s of making the subject interesting to classes, and to 
help them to a more extended knowledge of History. 

Its arrangement makes it a valuable aid to the students of History 
in any grade. It assigns the Topic for their study, and where it was 
thought beneficial to the student, forms of answers have been given, 
b\ir in no instance has the author attempted to study lessons for the 
pupils, realizing that mental development is as much dependent on 
thoHfiht as physical growth on exercise. 

We have endeavored to make this Outline complete without being 
technical. 

The Normal Idea of Instruction has been ever in view in its prepa- 
ration. We detest the idea of assigning lessons by pages, and ignore 
the practice of close adherence to text-books. 

No author can incorporate all in one common text upon History, 
No author is wholly unbiased and without prejudice. Then, to get 
a full and accurate conception of facts, wc must search manj' works. 
The Toi>ic Method requires this. It is the true Normal plan. It makes 
hold and thonglitful students— students in fact., and not parrots, and 
"one idea pupils." They soon learn to question one author until 
others (>onfirm him. The results of such research and questioning 
are ever tlie same, — industrious study hours, live historj"^ classes, and 
bold and accm-ate students. 



TNTUOPUCTTON. 



The history hours for both study and recitation, are always too 
short, when the teacher is fully imbued with his subject and exercises 
fan- judgment in the assignment of work. 

History has engrafted itself as permanently in the cunirulum of 
our common schools :is any of the three R"s; and what can or should 
be more interesting to the 3'oung American than the recital of his na- 
tion's historj', — the grandest chronicled in the thousands of yeai's of 
the world's existence — a history rejjlete with the exploits of heroism ; 
romantic in its characters of patriotism and love of liberty; rich in 
its examples of eloquence, wit. and logic; unprecedented in menta- 
and moral development, in inventions, increase in population, and 
progress in every particular. 

The teacher who can not make United States History interest 
ing has surelj' missed his calling. 

HOVV^ HISTORY IS SUCCESSFULLY TAUGHT. 

Know it yourself. Be enthusiastic and earnest in your teachieg, 
Make the pupil feel he is a character in the drama, a hero in the tale. 
Show him the theatei— map the scene. The eye fastens upon what it 
sees and locks it in the brain. 

" Tilings that address the ear are lost and die iu one short hour, 
But that Tvliich strikes the eye lives long upon Iho mind : 
The faithful sight engraves (he knowledge with a brand of light." 

Vary recitations. To-da}' describe some noble voyager — a Hudson 
east alone in a frail boat upon the icy seas; a Magellan fast in a Sar- 
gosa sea 'neatli a torrid sun. his brave sailors silent with parched 
tongues, dying of thirst, himself walking the vessel's deck, sword in 
liand, striking dead the one daring to cry " turn back.'' 

To-morrow map the voyage ; show the good or evil results ; asso- 
ciate the event with others that it can be remembered. Xever grow 
tired. Yoixr spirit is the class hni-o-.ncter. \ week — a month may 
pass and each daj' witness a change in the manner of recitation. Do 
not recite to kill a period of time, but have some leading point for 
each day's lesson, and make all others secondary to it. 



INTRODICTION. 



Never rely wholly ou one text. Make the class critical, inquisitive 
and anxious to search others than the*text-book Question but let the 
pupil recite. Keep the class under control, but allow freedom of de- 
bate and expression of personal opinions. Outline for two reasons: 
First, it shows the relation and aids in the association of events; and, 
too. "'seeiny aids the memory." Second, our outlines are excellent 
books of reference, and settle all disputes that may arise regarding 
former decisions. Outline by all means. Pupils enjoy it. It gives 
them a method of studj' and does not confine them to single pages. 

Work systematically in History as in everything. Require sonn^- 
thing absolute. Give the idea whenthe lesson Is assigned. See that 
there are no shirks. Bring up the backward and tardy ones by fre- 
quent class recitations. Have much essay and class work. Make it 
competitive. — there is no glory in a " lone " race. Free yourself and 
;;lass from the use of the '• text" in class; have it, but use it only to 
decide questions in dispute. Associate History with Geography, Bi- 
ography, Literature, and Science. Review. Review. .REVIEW. 

We can not allow this Outline to go to press without its bearing 
our grateful acknowledgment to Miss Laura Ensign for nuiny nevv^ 
and interesting points, taken from her "Outlines, Tablets and Sketches 
inLT. S. History ;■' to Prof. Henry, author of ''Voice of the People," and 
"Normal History of the United States;" to Dr. Liud, author of "'Out- 
lines of Common Bianclies;" to my teachers and pupils, who have 
helped me in the collecting, arranging, and performing the mochan- 
-ca! part of this work, and to nij^ alma mater — the Ceniral Noimal 
College of Danville. Ind., — where the system was learned, and th*^ 
work begun. 

EXPLANATION OF THE EXPONENTIAL SYSTEM OF OTTLINING. 

A double set of figures are used in this system, the larger one is 
the Coordinal Index, and the smaller one the Ordinal Index. History 
by the brace system, which is familiar to most students and teachers, 
is ej^sily understood, but is excelled by this system in the economy of

space, and its simplicity wheu once familiarized. By the brace sys- 
tem, a synopsis of a history outline would be this :

1'^ Aboriginal. 

2-^ Navigation. 

3'^ Colonization. 

■l'' Revolution and Confederation. 

5'^ Nationalization. 

The larger figures, or coordinal indices, indicate the number of 
heads under which a subject is treated. The smaller ojaes, ordinal.-;, 
indicate the order or sub-division from the original subject. Ordi- 
nals increase in size one unit every time a subject is divided. Coor- 
dlnals increase one unit every time a new head is spoken of; that is, 
if th(!re was another period of United States History after the Na- 
tional period, it would be G', 6, the coordinal index, increasing one, 
and 5, the ordinal, showing that the period ranks with the others 
named. No subject is subordinated when not coordinated. For 
iiif^tanoe, takins: the outline nbove:

will he reported to us, and attributed to the short period in which the 
w.i'.l. has been arranged.
